Buck ,
             Here is the scenerio, We need to block users using 'CPYTOPCD'
commands (don't ask why), and creating a simulation of 'CPYTOPCD' RPG
program to control over the 'CPYTOPCD' funtionalities which invisible to
users.
             Any idea of how to code this 'CPYTOPCD' program (preferable
coded in RPG/400) ?
             Thank you.
